Not only that but when the Diamondbacks wanted Jorge Posada included in a trade for Randy Johnson he didn't budge and still got the Big Unit. Now, how affective he was is left for interetation but the man can make good trades and usually not give up a lot in return.
Even with his injuries, Randy Johnson was still a very good pitcher for this team. His wins totals were definitely something we could have used since he's been gone. And considering that one of the parts we dealt for him was Dioner Navarro - aka our former stud catching prospect who was the heir to Posada and is now on the playoff Rays - it is one of those deals where it's a shame we didn't hold onto him, imho.
